When selecting "Open" Firefox is appending ".XSLX" to CSV files in Excel.

Hi All,

I'm trying to export a CSV file from a website and when selecting "Open", Firefox is appending ".XSLX" to CSV files in Excel and I cannot open the file.

Saving the file works fine (saves in CSV) but it is a little annoying that I cannot open the file without having to save and then open it.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers Sam
